Since 1990
It started in 1990 with the Plainfield, Illinois tornado. I've been chasing ever since, and these days I bring everyone along live.
I'm based in Kearney, right in the middle of Nebraska, so the whole Plains is a day's drive. What keeps me going is the people watching. And the goal has always been the same: get eyes on the storm so warnings reach people faster. A few extra minutes can save lives.
